Domaine Bellavista - Rivesaltes Ambré 1993
3*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
89/100
A. Larsson
"Finesse, elegance, mellowness. Balance, aromatic intensity on notes of dried fruit, gingerbread, red apricot, tender sweetness in balance with restrained acidity, rancio finish... Pure pleasure, after a most promising welcome on notes of dried apricot, leather, toast, and above all rancio, with walnut kernel." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2015)
